To quickly understand Copy and Paste from Excel,
download and install the program (it takes 15 seconds, no personal data
is requested). Then, open the sample Excel spreadsheet Misc.XLS (located
on the C:\ drive in the E200x folder). Copy the top 10 rows of the sample
spreadsheet. Bring up 1099Express. Click the Edit Menu then "Paste From Excel by
Header Name". Notice the columns are re-arranged to match the 1099 Express grid!
For more info, just click Help/Index, Topic 4, inside the 1099Express program.

1099 Express can import 50,000 payee records in
less than 1 second. To Copy and Paste from Excel, insert headers in
Row 1 to match your columns, like the samples in red below. Headers must be
spelled like the 1099Express grid headers. There is no need to re-arrange your
spreadsheet manually. Paste by Header Name automatically rearranges
your columns to match the 1099 Express grid. For example, both sheets
below import the same data, even though the columns are in a different order.
If you have a non-used column, just leave the header blank.

This import method works instantly, even with thousands of records. Try this
method now. Just download and install 1099 or W-2
Express now (see Help/Index Topic 4, and the sample spreadsheet called
Misc.xls). 1099 Express can import other formats supported by Excel, including Quickbooks,
Access, Dbase, fixed and delimited text files, and many other formats that can
be opened with Microsoft
Excel.

Note: Importing is designed to avoid re-typing data, which can be exported from
an accounting or other system. If you plan to type your records from scratch,
you may still use Excel. However, you may also use 1099Express which will
validate each record as it is typed.
